Coronation Street legend Angela Lonsdale unrecognisable 19 years after soap exit as she poses with The 1975 star
CORONATION Street star Angela Lonsdale posed with The 1975 star Ross MacDonald nearly two decades after appearing on the soap.
The actress, 53, who played Emma Watts on the ITV soap from 2000 to 2003, attended the band’s concert on Wednesday evening.
Angela beamed alongside guitarist Ross, who endearingly gave her a peck on the cheek.
The TV star captioned it: “Hope this gets me followers up. Lush to see you all at The 1975 tour.”
The former soap star delighted her former co-star Denise Welch and the mum of lead singer Matty Healy.
Loose Women’s Denise wrote: “The one that got away,” with a string of laughing emojis.
In 2021, she stunned viewers with her appearance when she starred in BBC One’s The Syndicate.
She popped up on the show and looked almost recognisable as she was caked in fake tan.
Playing an over-the-top dog owner called Mrs Levine, Angela could be seen smothered in bronze make-up which was topped off with blue eyeshadow.
Angela shot to fame on Corrie when she married the loveable Curly on the show.
She was on the soap for three years, before leaving to join The Bill in 2003, portraying Helen Coles.
Since then she has starred in other soaps like Doctors, playing DI Eva Moore, , Karen Sunderland in Casualty and popped up in Holby City.
Angela also played Grace Lane in Our Girl.
